Three-time NJCAA Champion East Mississippi to conduct three summer football camps in June

SCOOBA – Three-time NJCAA Champion East Mississippi Community College is scheduled to conduct three separate summer football camps during the month of June on the Scooba campus.

Having claimed three NJCAA National Championships over the past four seasons, the EMCC Lions will introduce the debut of their inaugural Quarterback Camp, June 15-16, under the instruction of first-year assistant football coach Clint Trickett.  Trickett played collegiately at West Virginia University and previously at Florida State University before being hired earlier this year by EMCC head football coach Buddy Stephens.  

Following EMCC's Quarterback Camp, East Mississippi will conduct a 7-on 7-Tournament the next day on Wednesday, June 17 at Sullivan-Windham Field.  At a cost of $20 per player, which includes lunch and a T-shirt, registration is set to begin at 9 a.m. with tournament action kicking off at 10 a.m.

The next week, EMCC is also scheduled to hold a three-day Lineman Camp, June 23-25, for student-athletes entering grades 9-12.  Fees for the Lions' Lineman Camp are $200 per overnight camper and $150 per day camper.
